An example is a Purple Strap with rainbow letters that spell "Hillary" or a black strap with the phrase "Sk8rz Rule".  You can also order Sportz Strapz™ or Sportz Clipz™ with your team's name, "Go Spartans"!  Just order your regular strap size and specify your message.  You can now order You Name it™ in Clipz and Single Clipz, the name or phrase will be vertical instead of horizontal. The Ear Connection reserves the right to refuse to make any strap or clip with a name or msg. that we feel is inappropriate or offensive. 

What sizes are available? 

The Strap is available in 4 sizes: Infant-6", Toddler-7 1/2", Child-9", and Youth, 11". The size represents the smalles size and adjusts up to an additional 2". The Clip is one size fits all, so there is no need to measure for this item. However, it is available with a smaller adjustment bead for little heads, and the length will be 2" shorter than the regular size.  just specify size infant. 

How do I know what size I need? 

Strap Measurements:

For proper fit for eyeglasses/sunglasses and small hearing aids, measure from just behind the ear, loosly around the base of the skull, back up to the same spot behind the other ear. This is the size to order. Do not add to this measurement, this will be the smallest size and your strap will adjust up to 2" more.

For large hearing aids and FM aids, measure from center of one aid to the center of the other while the wearer has the aids in. This allows for the "larger" device to be held more snugly to the head, however, all products can be worn in all cominations and measuring for the larger device can be done the same as for the small size.

If measurement is in between two sizes, we will make them to fit any size for no extra charge, however, special orders can only be returned if defective.

If you alternate between small and large hearing aids, order one for each!

The Clipz™ is one size fits all, so there is no need to measure for this item. However, it is available with a smaller adjustment bead for little heads, just specify size infant. 

How do I know how to order the adjustment bead size? 

The adjustment bead size is generally the same for all Strapz™ & Clipz™. If you order a SafeNSound Strapz™, it will have one large adjustment bead in the center, with several small round (infant size) adjustment beads on either side. If you prefer all small beads, just specify that in the "special instructions" section on the order form (small round only). Large Adjustment beads are approximately 1" high and 1/2" wide (Teddy Bears, Dogs, Airplanes, smiley faces); small adjustment beads are approximately 6-10mm (flowers, hearts, stars, ladybugs, VW Bug type cars). 

What Colors are available? 

The SafeNSound™ Products come in a variety of colors: Black, Blue, Brown, Gray, Navy, Pine, Pink, Purple, Red, and Yellow. The Adjustment beads are available in the same colors with the addition of Tan, Teal and many neon colors.  Small round beads are also available in Glow in the Dark colors, clear, aqua, orange, pink, purple and yellow.  Also, small round, stars, hearts and butterflies are available in sparkle colors blue, green, pink, red, silver and gold. 

Now available in Sportz Clipz™ and Sportz Strapz™: Baseball, Basketball, Football, Soccer, Tennis, Billiards and Volleyball.  

Will my product be all the same color? 

When you order you will be given the choice of colors for your adjustment beads. You can order them with different colors, or all the same, beads and strap color, whatever you choose. Because not all adjustment beads are available in all colors, you will be given the opportunity to make 2nd (alternate) choices for adjustment bead types and colors.
